Chapter 33- Getaway
                          
____Kyra's POV_____
                          
It's been two weeks since my wedding and I'm finally back from my honeymoon which was idyllic. Our time at the Hazelton Hotel was quite sublime and everything was like a fairytale. I got to know Raymond on a very personal level and I realised that I truly loved this guy. Raymond was actually extremely romantic and did something that made me feel more connected to him than I had ever felt before. Before my accident, I had given him an empty locket which he promised to complete. He reminded me by showing me the gold locket which contained a picture of the two of us and on the empty side, he added a picture of the two of us at our wedding. It was so touching and this gesture made me realise how much he really cared about me.
                          
When we arrived at the castle, all the maids and servants addressed me by my new title, 'Mrs.Henderson'. It had a beautiful ring to it and I think I will be very used to that name soon.
                          
Raymond had some business to attend to so as soon as we arrived back home, he kissed me and then took his black BMW because he had to leave to take care of his company. During on time spent on our honeymoon, he informed me that his family were descendants of the royal family of Canada and after the regicide, his father continued to live in the castle and fell in love with his mother. His father always wanted to bring back royalty but his claim was too weak to hold any substance as it had always been English royals with the most power. The royals of Canada and other countries such as Austria did not have enough power to form a monarchy and so, all countries are ruled by Presidents now.
                          
His father, Derek Henderson, eventually gave up on his dream of bringing back the monarchy and used the money he had from his royal inheritance to invest into oil companies and bought a few islands in the Caribbean and Philippines. After his father's death, Raymond, even though he was still a teenager, took charge of his father's businesses with the guidance of Amara, who was a few years older than him and loyal to the family.
                          
As I walked to the elevator, I noticed Amara heading towards my direction so I held the elevator open for her.
                          
"Kyra, or should I say 'Mrs. Henderson'. I see you're back from your honeymoon." she said smiling.
                          
She pressed the fourth floor on the elevator while I pressed the third floor.
                          
"Yes, I am. You look full, have you put on weight?" I asked and her eyes opened wide.
                          
She's been acting strange from the day of my wedding. I wonder what's troubling her. It got a little awkward after I asked her about her weight, which was such a terrible thing to do as even I get overworked about my weight sometimes, so I decided to break the silence.
                          
"So, what have you been up to while I was away on my honeymoon?" I asked her curiously.
                          
"Umm...nothing much. Just the usual." she said, sounding a little nervous.
                          
I looked at her and she was fidgeting with her hands. This was the first time I had ever seen Amara act like this. Something was definitely up with her.
                          
" Can we talk in your-" the elevator dinged, signalling I had arrived on my floor.
                          
"Do you want to talk to me in my room?" I asked her and she nodded her head.
                          
We walked out of the elevator and when we got to my chambers, I closed the door behind us.
                          
"What's going on with you Amara? You've been acting stranger than usual." I asked curiously.
                          
She took a deep breath and her next words had me in utter shock.
                          
"Kyra, I'm pregnant!" she said smiling.
